Well I’m pretty sure little man is teething! Who knew we would hit this stage so quickly?! 3.5 months seems way too early to me, but I know it’s happening because the poor baby has been fussy and clingy for several days now. Along with our normal bath/peace and calming routine, we’ve been diffusing lavender, and last night, had to add peppermint into the mix. Little man was burning up with a teething fever. After his bath, we heavily diluted peppermint essential oil and applied it along his spine. Within a few minutes he was cooled down and comfortable enough to sleep. We are so thankful for our essential oils!

Peppermint has been a LIFE SAVER for me. I have had bad headaches for a long time now. I have always used an over the counter medicine. Now I use a couple of drops of peppermint. I place it on my temples (being very careful to not get to close to my eyes), behind my ears, on the back of my neck and a swipe across my forehead. FINALLY I have found something that really works!
